Sriracha (Single)

DESCRIPTION

I was at a party, I was pretty stressed out and had a good amount of anxiety. I recently decided to bring my camera everywhere, so I got my camera out and tried to see if I could release my stress. I took some photos and I then saw this object. It was really interesting and thought it could look really cool. I took some practice shots and at this point I forgot all about my anxiety. So, I took some experiment shots, and then got the final result. I was ecstatic. This instantly became my favorite photo i've taken and printed it right away, and I think it looks awesome.

By the way, the object was a blow up Sriracha bottle behind a big light.

AUTHOR

I started taking photos for around 4 years now. During these 4 years, i've studied many different styles of photography, techniques, equipment, light, and many other subjects. I went through many phases as well. I originally wanted to only shoot wildlife and absolutely NO people. Then I started to move to landscapes with the same ideology of NO people. After this, i'm not sure what changed, but then I got obsessed with Urban photography, and people. When I first started volunteering in Thailand, I started practicing photojournalism, and portraits. One day, when I was taking some photos I decided to do a moving long exposure photo, and it looked really cool, so I decided to practice it more, and am now totally obsessed with abstract photos.
